All the old ones, with two exceptions, will be removed to give plaoe to new ones promised, who undoubtedly are in every way inferior and have no experience. The City Council in doing this certainly are not working for the best interests of our people. Ward bummers who may have a few more votes to sell at a primary election, or trade for a job, as it looks in this instance, are not the sort of men to trust, or add respectability to a city government. Messrs. Woods, long, Tubbs and Fat-ton, in less than three hours fishing yesterday caught at Avondale, on the Licking Beservoir, ninetyfour black bass. Lovers of the sport can satiate their desires at this place unless they are extremely difficult to please. The Production of Pis; Iron. The production of pig iron in the United States in 1877 was 2,314,585 tons of two thousand pounds a gain of nearly 225,000 tons over the product of 1876. Farther evidence of a decided reaction in the trade is shown by the.faot that, notwithstanding this larger product, the took unsold at the close of 1877 was 45.-000 tons leas than at the dose of 1876. Of the total product Pennsylvania contributed almost fifty percent a larger percentage of the country's product than the State has furnished for many years. The Bulletin of the Iron and Steel Association, which publishes a detailed report of the products of each Iron making district, says that prices were lower in 1877 than ever before, and so low as to be alike "ruinous" to the capital invested in the manufacture of iron end to the labor vrhioh produced it. - Kepreaenlailve O'Connor. Cincinnati Times.l Representative O'Connor has vindicated himself against the charge that he was once a convict. He has gone to the Dap-nty Warden of the Michigan State Prison and obtained from him a statement that he was not the man who was conlitd there. This is conclusive and puts an end to the scandal, There is not a person in the State but will be heartily glad that the charge has been disproved, and that Mr. O'Connor has effectually disposed of the allegations that had been made. Coal A. nee and Plume. W. H. Johnson, of Mentor, informs us that he got a fine crop of plums last year from a tree that had previously failed to mature its fruit in consequence of the curculio, by covering the soil about the roots thickly with coal ashes at least he attributes the success to this cause. It may be that the ashes were so thick as to smother the insects, or prevent their rising out of their winter quarters. Faint- hm zefejrapn. BY TELEGRAPH TO TBJt OHIO STATE JOV&SAl FIRE RECORD.

Tho Texaa Pacific managers have agreed to make the fight fur the Tna Pacific subsidy Drat in the senate, ar.d the effort will bs made to bring it up this week, A Galveston News special savs a San Jaclutu fim has beep Rhirming arms and ammunition tu Meupo for seyerai weeas past. A movement against l)ia is suspected.Gold is being paid out by the merchants of Chicago quite freely. The Northwestern Bank baa rdvertised that it will redeem in gold all of its circulating notes that may bs presented at us counter. i is the first of the National banks to take this step. It is believed the Senate will adopt the House amendment to the Pension Appro priation bill, providing that from and after July 1 none but wounded and disabled Union soldiers ahall hold the crficea of Pension Agents, If thia provision becomes a law, about fifteen of the eighteen Pension Agents will have to vacate office to make way for wounded men. At half past three o'clook Saturday fr lernoon, the boiler of a portable engine of ten-horse power, being tested in the yard of the Eagle machine works, at the east end of the Union depot, Indianapolis, exploded with terrific force, sending the fragments in every direction, tearing a large hole in the main machinery building, and bo injuring four men that they, it is believed, will die. The injured men are Charles Hammond, engineer, Vancleve, Carpenter, John Cetheizsr, and J. B Smith, superintendent, A Saturday Washington special to the Cincinnati Commercial says : The fall in gold to-day to onefourth of one per cent, premium caused considerable comment here among the law makers. Some who fayor tbe repeal of tbe resumption aot say that it will have to he done in a hurry, or resumption will practically take place before the time set by law. Tbe general opinion is that as a matter of fact the Treasury could resume on Monday, pay gold for greenbacks, and not draw a very large orowd or seriously reduce the amount of gold on hand. The United States Consul at Jerusalem sends an account of the recent visit there of General Grant, The General waa met at Kalourah, five miles from Jerusalem, by dragomen and guards of the Consulates of tbe Greek Patriarch and of the Paeha of Palestine and by a company of cavalry, and was weloomed to tbe oity wity military honors. The Pasha's military band was with the General daily, and during the time of his atay he received every mark of consideration from the Pasha and local Consuls, and the dignitaries of the Greek and Armenian churches.

A Saturday Washington special to the Cincinnati Enquirer says : Thomas Jeffer son's grave at Monticello is to be adorned with a $5000 monument. Sam Cox took advantage of this being Jefferson's birth day anniversary, and in a moment of patriotic gush and ardor the bill went through. Foster waa disposed to object because it was a disgrace that Jefferson's grave had not been better preserved, but he was willing to vote $50,000 on the spot for a monument to be erected in Washington. Ho waa persuaded to withdraw his oh lections, however. It Is an easy mat' ter to get a thing through the House under a hurrah or on the spur of tbe moment. It was in this condition of affairs that Clark got his bill throngh to put Shields on the retired list, and that Bice got his amendment on the Pension bill requiring that Pension Agents shall be disabled Union soldiers. About noon, Saturday, a terrible accl dent occurred in Pone Hollow, Bloom ington, Illinois. A fifteen-year son of William Logan, a well known butcher, was cutting sod on a high embankmenton the right of the way of the Indianapolis line, when the noon train of that road came along, frightening his team so that it backed down the embankment npon the track. Young Logan, attempting to check them, wss thrown on the track in front of the engine, and run over, the wheels cat ting one leg entirely off, and smashing one arm so that it hangs by a thread only. The wagon was demolished, and the horses hurt by the same train. They ran into a man's lumber wagon a little further intlde the city, and tore it np. injuring one hone, and throwing the driver a long distance. He fortunately escaped almost nnnurt. Oblo. The Dimmitt trial is still on in Clermont county. Dimmitt will be put on the stand to-day. The residence of Abram Jenkins, in Mahoning county, was burned on the 12th. Loss $1000.

The Commissioners of Clarke countv have decided to advertise for plans and specincations lor a new court bouse and jail. The suit of Ieaao Mills v. The Clnoin nati and Muskingum Valley railroad has been stricken from the docket in Fairfield county. John Shreve, Millbrook township, Wayne county, committed suicide on the 12th by shooting himself through the heed. No cause is assigned;. McKay, the alleged murderer of Mo- Cormack, of Mt, Vernon, has been re turned to that place for trial. John Band, the other murderer, is in prison in Canada, and considerable time must necessarily elapse before he can be extradited. Foreign. Count Zecby, the Austrian Ambassador at Constantinople, is negotiating to obtain tne rone's consent to a possible Austrian occupation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The situation at Conatantinonle is still regarded as dangerous to peace. Notwithstanding the protestations of the Porte, theye are intrignes going on among the Pashas, and the discretion of the Russian commrnder and of Layard is doubted, Mehemet AH and Mukhtar, Qsman, Baouf and Said Pashas, and other Turkish Generals, dined with Liyard Satur day, At St Petersburg the opinion reaard- ing Gortschakoff's circular is much di vided. Some consider it a complete po litical programme, and worthy of great power. Others regard it a formal refutation of Lord Salisbury's accusations. Some thick it is Buesia's last word; others the intrcdaction to negotiations on new ground, It has greatly displeased those who wiBh the Government to nail the colors to tha meat, and risk all rather than make the slightest concession. A meeting of three thousand ootton operatives waa held at Blackburn, England, Saturday afternoon, to take action on the masters' notice requiring the ac- es. wtfinffil. reduction ol Tbe operatives adopted a resolution declaring that unless masters took down their notice work should immediately be stopped. A more moderate motion of the Executive committee was rejected, tbe original being adopted by an overwhelming majority. Consequently there is a prospeot of a strike on a large scale, as mssterB are apparently unyielding. A vast out-door meeting also took: place on Blakey moor, at which an uncompromising spiritof resistance was exhibited. A London telegram of Saturday says i There has heen teas excitement at the Portsmouth dock yard this week. Work is fast assuming the ordinary routine character. Over-time has been generally stopped. Very little remains to be done in (he way of warlike preparations. Monday it became known that a letter had been forwarded from the Admiralty to Portsmouth, asking how long it would take to get ready for sea a flotilla of iron gunboats built for service in the Baltic during the last Russian war, and for most part since lying in sups at Haslar. inese are formidable little veBBels of 254 tone displacement, with twin sorawe, and carry ing each an eighteen. ton gun in tne bows. Preparations were actually begun to tit them with magazines, when countermanding orders were received, . A Plea tor tbe Microscope ae a Toy. Science QosBlp.J We are often reminded that the micro scope iB no longer a toy, but a scientific instrument, and those who use it for recreation only are not unfrequently hard nit, as mere wasters or time and desecra-tora of a noble power. Now, while fully appreciating the scientific use of the mi croscope, I would suggest a Blight altera tion in the above dictum, and Bay, it is not only a toy, but a scientific instrument. Investigation requires powerful effort, both of mind and body. Few have this to expend nowadays on what does not bring grist to the mill. The mind wants recreation, as the appetite longs sometimes for change of diet and enjoys the dainty bit. The holiday-keeper rushes into the country, not to study, but to enjoy its beauties. He visits the picture gallery, not to become an artist, but to satisfy a taBte. He goes to the British Museum or the Zoological Gardens, not to beoome a naturalist, but to enlarge his ideas. He cultivates a variety of sweet and pretty flowers in his garden, not with the remotest intention of becoming acquainted with their orders and relationships, but purely for the enjoyment to be derived from them. And why may a man not use bis microscope in the same way? What wonders what beauties does it reveal I Well has it been said that the microscope is a door into another world. It is so, and the man who uses it merely as such is amply rewarded. The door is opened and he is almost bewildered with the variety and beauty of what he sees, His mind is enlarged, his views are cor rected, his taste is charmed, his wonder excited. JLbewnoieman is elevated, re freshed and invigorated. It is not only a pastime, but "an Intellectual pastime." .But, lurther, we are told it is "sure to ter minate in beneficial results." this "intellectual pastime," then, does not as a rule stop there. It is not a lovely vision which vanishes away, but is an avenue to a brighter and broader view. It induces the habit of observation, and surrounds even the least things with a halo of interest which they could never otherwise have possessed. The smut on the ear of corn the disease of the leaf of the potato the mould on the cheese all are now full of interest. The most unpromising object often exhibits a most unexpected character, or reveals a long-looked-for seoret. And thus the mind is not only refreshed, but stored with a new fact, which in its turn proves to be only the oradle of another; to, step by step the "beneficial results" are evolved. And great as these are in an educational and abstract point of view, they are by no means wanting in a practical, as the application of the microscope, to physiological, histological and commercial subjects abnndantly proves. Let na begin, then, by play. If it ends hue it is at least as innocent and pleasing as any other let some of us begin by using our microscopes as toys, let others use them so sometimes, for the amusement of the uninitiated it is "an intellectual pastime which is sure to ter minate in beneficial results." This toy, moreover, is not an expansive one. either to begin with, or keep going. HORSE AND TURF N0TE8. George A. Baker, of Cleveland, naid lor me nine trotting mare Adelaide (rec ord 2:21J), $20,000. There are over eieht hundred horses in the United States which have a record under three minutes. Himyac. the two-vear-old that la ex. peoted to be the pride of Kentucky, makes niB aeoui ai rtasnviue. Three minute horses are not as dear as they oaoe were. Dan Howard, with a record oi v.zvj, was recently sold by the onenu oi Hamilton, Kentucky, for $325. The highest price ever paid at auction for a trotting horse wss the sum for which Kentucky Prince waa recently knocked down in New York $10,700. Bidders for this horse were present from Call fornia, Kentucky and Boston. Colonel R. S. Sor'ader, Lexington, Aemucay, nas sold to A. . ttoberts.Nor-walk, Ohio, the brown geldine Billv. foal ed 1871, by Victor Denmark, dam by Clifton Pilot; record of 2:29. He is a very easy trotter, with fins action, and i steadily improving. The celebrated hav atallinn TTurria believed by soma to bs as speedr a ti-mior as lives, and who has made a record of 2:19, has been sold to David Logan, of Baltimore. The price paid for him is aaiu to oe oeiween ten and twelve thousand dollars. He has been placed In John Turner's hands, and will doubtless be heard from favorably during tbe pres. ent season, Controller, the bay horse which recently trotted ten miles over the Bay District track, at San Francisco, in 27:27$, is described as standing sixteen hands, The greatest variation in any of his miles was 7J seconds. The record runs t 2:47, 2:49. 2:45, .2:46, 2:453, 2:42, 2:45, 2:41, 2:41f, 2:44. The performance ie the best on record, Messrs. Stouts, Wooeter, O., well known In Ohio as thorough supporters of the turf and lovers of the thoroughbred horse, intend to train and run the following young ones, at Columbus and Cincinnati, and probably at the Eastern courses : General Wiley, b. c, three years, by Wild-idle out of Matins, by Mahomet; Alice Berry, b. f,, by Narragansett out of Lizzie Berry, by Lexington; Lottie Lee, br. f,, two years, by Local (son of Lightning, Wbat a Farmer Ought to Know. A farmer ought to be not onlv an an. complished tiller of the soil, but also an excellent mechanic, a fair harness-maker ana mender ot shoes, a tolerable carpenter, a pretty good blacksmith or machinist, and also a wideawake, thornm.li judge and breeder of stock, knowing how bmu unnug mr lueir aumenia not only horses and cattle, but sheep, hogs, mules, EXl'Hyi or anything that money can be a civil engineer, 'axq'uainfedwlhl'Vevitt and hydraulics, and repairs of pumps, and if, in addition to these requirements, he understands laying Btone and brick, and putting on plastering, as well aB mixing and applying paints, he will find plenty to do, to say nothing of what he ought to know about grain and milling it. His wife, and in fact good housewives generally, must not only understand housekeeping, but she must be a good cook, baker and confectioner, know how to make and fit garments of all sorts for both sexes, and not only be a tailoress, but milliner and mantua-maker also. She must understand canning fruit and vegetables, and making both pickles and preaorves. With these, the experience of a few years observation as a mother, ought to make her something more than an ordinary physician. Mast ailmentB pertaining both to human beings and brutes are but trifling at first, and if taken in time, are easily cured. It is only by neglect that they become serious. Prairie Farmer. A Wonderful Priming- Press. Hoe's perfecting and folding press seemB to reach the very ultima thule of newspaper production, The recent improvements of the Hoe company resulted in securing a rate of thirty thousand copies an hour, but a still more important addition has been made to the machine, consisting of tbe combining with it of a small folding mechanism of novel design, which puts out of use a room full of machinery and performs the work of twelve men. The entire process is automatic. A roll of paper is hung on a horizontal axis over the press, the end of the big ribbon is pushed into the machine, a lever starts the revolutions, and as the roll unwinds complete copieB, neatly folded and ready for the mail, issue in two streams at the end of the machine, no hand touching them from the time the roll is swung into its place, till the folded papers are gathered up. The nominal speed of the new perfecting and folding press is about 3000 an hour greater than that of tbe earlier perfecting press. But since the work of the new one inoludes folding, its real speed exceeds even this high figure by just the time required to fold an entire-edition. It is beyond all sort of comparison, therefore, the fastest priming machine ever devised. It can deliver 18,000 papers an hour folded for mailing, Money la irblna. Coins in China came at last to be made bo tbin that 1000 of them piled together were only three inches high; then gold and silver were abandoned and copper, tin, Bhells, skins, stones and paper were given a fixed value, and used until by abuse all the advantages to be derived from the use of money were lost, and there was nothing left for tbe people to do but to go back to barter, and this they did more than once. They cannot be said to have a coinage; 2900 years ago they made round coins with a square hole in the middle, and they have made no advance beyond that since. The well known cash is a cast brass coin of that description, and, although it is valued at about one mill and half of our money, and has to be Btrung in lots of 10UU to be computed with any ease, it is the sole measure of value and legal tender of the country. So iah, Mexican and our new trade dollars are employed in China; they pass because they are necessary for larger operations, and beoauae faith in their standard value has beoome established, but they are cur rent simply as stamped ingots, with their weigui anu oneness lnaioateq. Fattening Itieen. The English feed for fattening sheep consists of cotton seed and turnips. They claim that it will put on the meat fat, iB the Bafest feed, makes the best mutton at a less cost and produces the best and strong, eat manure. GRAND SPKING DEY C Aft P B T S i!

Nothing more was Been of him until about six o'clock yesterday morning one of the bell boys, in passing bis room on tbe third Boor, noticed that the door waa standing ajar several inchea. He entered and found Mr. Marshall lying on the bed as if be had juat laid down for a short rest. He was lying on his back, his legs astride, a pair of eye glasses iu his right hand, and a copy of the Cincinnati Enquirer in the left, or rather having fallen down at his left side. The eyes and mouth of the deceased were closed and his features regular, giving every indication that he had died without a struggle. The exact time of his death is not known, though the probabilities are that he died sometime during the evening Saturday, The deceased has been troubled for some time with heart disease and special complaints were heard from him Saturday, because of indisposition from thia ssurce. On climbing the stairs to the Su preme Court room he was obliged to stop and rest, from exhaustion, brought about by heart dieease. Mr. Marshall was one of the most prominent lawyers of his section of the country and had a great many friends in the profession generally, and among the Judges on the bench. Judge Tarbell, wno nas Deen silting in tne -District uourt in this city for some days past, and Captain Higgins, of the Adjutant General's office, are fellow townsmen of Mr. Marshall, and made the necessary arrangements yesterday for the remains to be taken to Georgetown. Dr. Loving was called yesterday morning and made a brief examination of the body, although no post mortem was held. Sufficient was learned to justify the belief that death resulted from heart disease, the immediate cause being thoroughly taxed and exhausted energies. Mr. Marshall had been married the second time, and leaves a wife and a large family or children. Since the foregoing was written, further particulars have been learned in connection with the arrival of Mr. Marshall in the city, which it may be well to mention here. Hia regular place of stopping when he came to the city has been the American House, He. in company with Edward Boney, Auditor of Brown county, and Mr. McKnight, of Georgetown, came in upon the 12:50 train Thursday night. When he arrived at the American, Mr. Marshall informed Mr. Will Tucker, the clerk, that it would be necessary to place him in a room with some other person, as be would probably require some attention during the night. Accordingly all three oi tne gentlemen were given room 94, but afterward Mr. Boney came out and was assigned to room 97, By request two boys were put in Mr. Marshall's room to stay the balance of the night, and on Friday he had the assistance of the porter during the day for dressing, undressing, bathing, etc. Friday evening, in a number of orders which were taken for supper, Mr. Marshall failed to receive his as soon as he might have under other circumstances, and seemed to take offense over the matter. At any rate, he did not wait for his supper, but went to the Neil House, where he was heard from the next day. Tha balance of tbe account in regard to his arguing a case in the Supreme Court, Saturday, is correct, though it is not certain as to the exact time when he came to the Neil House and passed up to his room. Colonel Marshall waa the Democratic candidate for Lientenant Governor in 1861, when Hugh J. Jewett ran, and was also member from Brown county of the Fiftyninth General Assembly, which sat in 1870. Tbe remains were taken to his late home, In Georgetown, last night. OPENING! O 3B -a. 2NT X3 IN ALL DEPARTMENTS! and 29 NORTH HIGH ST. i Palm Sunday. Yesterday was Palm Sunday, so called as to commemorate the entry of Chritt into Jerusalem, five days before the cruc'-flxion. Tbe day waa generally observed by the Catholic and Episcopal Churches, which were appropriately decorated with cedars and a few palm branches. It is not known exactly whether palm branches were strewn before Christ as he entered Jerusalem, as the New Testament saya "that multitudes went before him and spread their garments in the way : others out down branches from trees and spread them in the way." It is thought that aajjn hranches were used, because euch species called the Phanix liwiyiijfw, growing in this country, has been ordained by the Boman Church to be need in the religious ceremonies on Palm Sunday. In some places tbe date tree is also grown for the branches alone to be used for such decorations, y" Tbe Telepbone. Yesterday afternoon a practical test of the workings of the telephone between thia place and Cleveland was given from the Western Union Telegraph. This end of the line was superintended by Charles Boss, chief operator, and the Cleveland end by George Wadsworth, assistant chief operator. The weather was not favorable, yet the test was very satisfactory, conversation being carried on with comparative ease. Singing from the other end of the line could be heard very distinctly, while singing at this point was as easily heard in Cleveland. Cleveland sent down "Larboard Watch," and was answered with "Mother, Kissed Me in My Dreams;" then came "Almost Persuaded," which was answered by "Hold the Fort" and the "Sweet By and By." The distance over which the Bound traveled is about 140 miles. Taken altogether, the teat was a complete success. Amusements. Opera Home Hia Louise Pomeroy appeared Saturday afternoon as Oamllle. The report that this was ber first appearance in that character was strengthened by several circumstances among them a resort to the good offices of the prompter. She dressed and looked the character admirably, was satisfacto-y in parts of her roading; at times, however, she seemed to be rehearsing for Lady Macbeth, which she played in the evoning. Her Lady Macbeth was perhaps the least acceptable of any of her chsracterlzations in this city. She seems to adopt the heaviest conception of the part, but haB not the voice of a Charlotte Oushman or a Mrs. Waller to carry it out. Miss Pomeroy will probably not make a highly successful Lady Macbeth unless she revolutionizes the character and obtains the public consent to a departure from the old and recogoized school. Bryant's Minstrels will be at the Opera Bouse Thursday evening. Heal Estate Transfer. Deeds have been filed in the Recorder's office since our last report as follows: W. E.

All the old ones, with two exceptions, will be removed to give plaoe to new ones promised, who undoubtedly are in every way inferior and have no experience. The City Council in doing this certainly are not working for the best interests of our people. Ward bummers who may have a few more votes to sell at a primary election, or trade for a job, as it looks in this instance, are not the sort of men to trust, or add respectability to a city government. Messrs. Woods, long, Tubbs and Fat-ton, in less than three hours fishing yesterday caught at Avondale, on the Licking Beservoir, ninetyfour black bass. Lovers of the sport can satiate their desires at this place unless they are extremely difficult to please. The Production of Pis; Iron. The production of pig iron in the United States in 1877 was 2,314,585 tons of two thousand pounds a gain of nearly 225,000 tons over the product of 1876. Farther evidence of a decided reaction in the trade is shown by the.faot that, notwithstanding this larger product, the took unsold at the close of 1877 was 45.-000 tons leas than at the dose of 1876. Of the total product Pennsylvania contributed almost fifty percent a larger percentage of the country's product than the State has furnished for many years. The Bulletin of the Iron and Steel Association, which publishes a detailed report of the products of each Iron making district, says that prices were lower in 1877 than ever before, and so low as to be alike "ruinous" to the capital invested in the manufacture of iron end to the labor vrhioh produced it. - Kepreaenlailve O'Connor. Cincinnati Times.l Representative O'Connor has vindicated himself against the charge that he was once a convict. He has gone to the Dap-nty Warden of the Michigan State Prison and obtained from him a statement that he was not the man who was conlitd there. This is conclusive and puts an end to the scandal, There is not a person in the State but will be heartily glad that the charge has been disproved, and that Mr. O'Connor has effectually disposed of the allegations that had been made. Coal A. nee and Plume. W. H. Johnson, of Mentor, informs us that he got a fine crop of plums last year from a tree that had previously failed to mature its fruit in consequence of the curculio, by covering the soil about the roots thickly with coal ashes at least he attributes the success to this cause. It may be that the ashes were so thick as to smother the insects, or prevent their rising out of their winter quarters. Faint- hm zefejrapn. BY TELEGRAPH TO TBJt OHIO STATE JOV&SAl FIRE RECORD.

Some who fayor tbe repeal of tbe resumption aot say that it will have to he done in a hurry, or resumption will practically take place before the time set by law.

The United States Consul at Jerusalem sends an account of the recent visit there of General Grant, The General waa met at Kalourah, five miles from Jerusalem, by dragomen and guards of the Consulates of tbe Greek Patriarch and of the Paeha of Palestine and by a company of cavalry, and was weloomed to tbe oity wity military honors.

A Saturday Washington special to the Cincinnati Enquirer says : Thomas Jeffer son's grave at Monticello is to be adorned with a $5000 monument. Sam Cox took advantage of this being Jefferson's birth day anniversary, and in a moment of patriotic gush and ardor the bill went through. Foster waa disposed to object because it was a disgrace that Jefferson's grave had not been better preserved, but he was willing to vote $50,000 on the spot for a monument to be erected in Washington. Ho waa persuaded to withdraw his oh lections, however. It Is an easy mat' ter to get a thing through the House under a hurrah or on the spur of tbe moment. It was in this condition of affairs that Clark got his bill throngh to put Shields on the retired list, and that Bice got his amendment on the Pension bill requiring that Pension Agents shall be disabled Union soldiers. About noon, Saturday, a terrible accl dent occurred in Pone Hollow, Bloom ington, Illinois. A fifteen-year son of William Logan, a well known butcher, was cutting sod on a high embankmenton the right of the way of the Indianapolis line, when the noon train of that road came along, frightening his team so that it backed down the embankment npon the track. Young Logan, attempting to check them, wss thrown on the track in front of the engine, and run over, the wheels cat ting one leg entirely off, and smashing one arm so that it hangs by a thread only.

Some consider it a complete po litical programme, and worthy of great power. Others regard it a formal refutation of Lord Salisbury's accusations. Some thick it is Buesia's last word; others the intrcdaction to negotiations on new ground, It has greatly displeased those who wiBh the Government to nail the colors to tha meat, and risk all rather than make the slightest concession. A meeting of three thousand ootton operatives waa held at Blackburn, England, Saturday afternoon, to take action on the masters' notice requiring the ac- es. wtfinffil. reduction ol Tbe operatives adopted a resolution declaring that unless masters took down their notice work should immediately be stopped.

A vast out-door meeting also took: place on Blakey moor, at which an uncompromising spiritof resistance was exhibited.

Science QosBlp.J We are often reminded that the micro scope iB no longer a toy, but a scientific instrument, and those who use it for recreation only are not unfrequently hard nit, as mere wasters or time and desecra-tora of a noble power. Now, while fully appreciating the scientific use of the mi croscope, I would suggest a Blight altera tion in the above dictum, and Bay, it is not only a toy, but a scientific instrument. Investigation requires powerful effort, both of mind and body. Few have this to expend nowadays on what does not bring grist to the mill. The mind wants recreation, as the appetite longs sometimes for change of diet and enjoys the dainty bit. The holiday-keeper rushes into the country, not to study, but to enjoy its beauties. He visits the picture gallery, not to become an artist, but to satisfy a taBte. He goes to the British Museum or the Zoological Gardens, not to beoome a naturalist, but to enlarge his ideas. He cultivates a variety of sweet and pretty flowers in his garden, not with the remotest intention of becoming acquainted with their orders and relationships, but purely for the enjoyment to be derived from them. And why may a man not use bis microscope in the same way? What wonders what beauties does it reveal I Well has it been said that the microscope is a door into another world. It is so, and the man who uses it merely as such is amply rewarded. The door is opened and he is almost bewildered with the variety and beauty of what he sees, His mind is enlarged, his views are cor rected, his taste is charmed, his wonder excited. JLbewnoieman is elevated, re freshed and invigorated. It is not only a pastime, but "an Intellectual pastime." .But, lurther, we are told it is "sure to ter minate in beneficial results." this "intellectual pastime," then, does not as a rule stop there. It is not a lovely vision which vanishes away, but is an avenue to a brighter and broader view. It induces the habit of observation, and surrounds even the least things with a halo of interest which they could never otherwise have possessed. The smut on the ear of corn the disease of the leaf of the potato the mould on the cheese all are now full of interest. The most unpromising object often exhibits a most unexpected character, or reveals a long-looked-for seoret. And thus the mind is not only refreshed, but stored with a new fact, which in its turn proves to be only the oradle of another; to, step by step the "beneficial results" are evolved. And great as these are in an educational and abstract point of view, they are by no means wanting in a practical, as the application of the microscope, to physiological, histological and commercial subjects abnndantly proves. Let na begin, then, by play. If it ends hue it is at least as innocent and pleasing as any other let some of us begin by using our microscopes as toys, let others use them so sometimes, for the amusement of the uninitiated it is "an intellectual pastime which is sure to ter minate in beneficial results." This toy, moreover, is not an expansive one. either to begin with, or keep going. HORSE AND TURF N0TE8. George A. Baker, of Cleveland, naid lor me nine trotting mare Adelaide (rec ord 2:21J), $20,000. There are over eieht hundred horses in the United States which have a record under three minutes. Himyac. the two-vear-old that la ex. peoted to be the pride of Kentucky, makes niB aeoui ai rtasnviue. Three minute horses are not as dear as they oaoe were. Dan Howard, with a record oi v.zvj, was recently sold by the onenu oi Hamilton, Kentucky, for $325. The highest price ever paid at auction for a trotting horse wss the sum for which Kentucky Prince waa recently knocked down in New York $10,700. Bidders for this horse were present from Call fornia, Kentucky and Boston. Colonel R. S. Sor'ader, Lexington, Aemucay, nas sold to A. . ttoberts.Nor-walk, Ohio, the brown geldine Billv. foal ed 1871, by Victor Denmark, dam by Clifton Pilot; record of 2:29. He is a very easy trotter, with fins action, and i steadily improving. The celebrated hav atallinn TTurria believed by soma to bs as speedr a ti-mior as lives, and who has made a record of 2:19, has been sold to David Logan, of Baltimore. The price paid for him is aaiu to oe oeiween ten and twelve thousand dollars. He has been placed In John Turner's hands, and will doubtless be heard from favorably during tbe pres. ent season, Controller, the bay horse which recently trotted ten miles over the Bay District track, at San Francisco, in 27:27$, is described as standing sixteen hands, The greatest variation in any of his miles was 7J seconds. The record runs t 2:47, 2:49. 2:45, .2:46, 2:453, 2:42, 2:45, 2:41, 2:41f, 2:44. The performance ie the best on record, Messrs. Stouts, Wooeter, O., well known In Ohio as thorough supporters of the turf and lovers of the thoroughbred horse, intend to train and run the following young ones, at Columbus and Cincinnati, and probably at the Eastern courses : General Wiley, b. c, three years, by Wild-idle out of Matins, by Mahomet; Alice Berry, b. f,, by Narragansett out of Lizzie Berry, by Lexington; Lottie Lee, br. f,, two years, by Local (son of Lightning, Wbat a Farmer Ought to Know. A farmer ought to be not onlv an an. complished tiller of the soil, but also an excellent mechanic, a fair harness-maker ana mender ot shoes, a tolerable carpenter, a pretty good blacksmith or machinist, and also a wideawake, thornm.li judge and breeder of stock, knowing how bmu unnug mr lueir aumenia not only horses and cattle, but sheep, hogs, mules, EXl'Hyi or anything that money can be a civil engineer, 'axq'uainfedwlhl'Vevitt and hydraulics, and repairs of pumps, and if, in addition to these requirements, he understands laying Btone and brick, and putting on plastering, as well aB mixing and applying paints, he will find plenty to do, to say nothing of what he ought to know about grain and milling it. His wife, and in fact good housewives generally, must not only understand housekeeping, but she must be a good cook, baker and confectioner, know how to make and fit garments of all sorts for both sexes, and not only be a tailoress, but milliner and mantua-maker also. She must understand canning fruit and vegetables, and making both pickles and preaorves. With these, the experience of a few years observation as a mother, ought to make her something more than an ordinary physician. Mast ailmentB pertaining both to human beings and brutes are but trifling at first, and if taken in time, are easily cured. It is only by neglect that they become serious. Prairie Farmer. A Wonderful Priming- Press. Hoe's perfecting and folding press seemB to reach the very ultima thule of newspaper production, The recent improvements of the Hoe company resulted in securing a rate of thirty thousand copies an hour, but a still more important addition has been made to the machine, consisting of tbe combining with it of a small folding mechanism of novel design, which puts out of use a room full of machinery and performs the work of twelve men. The entire process is automatic. A roll of paper is hung on a horizontal axis over the press, the end of the big ribbon is pushed into the machine, a lever starts the revolutions, and as the roll unwinds complete copieB, neatly folded and ready for the mail, issue in two streams at the end of the machine, no hand touching them from the time the roll is swung into its place, till the folded papers are gathered up. The nominal speed of the new perfecting and folding press is about 3000 an hour greater than that of tbe earlier perfecting press. But since the work of the new one inoludes folding, its real speed exceeds even this high figure by just the time required to fold an entire-edition. It is beyond all sort of comparison, therefore, the fastest priming machine ever devised. It can deliver 18,000 papers an hour folded for mailing, Money la irblna. Coins in China came at last to be made bo tbin that 1000 of them piled together were only three inches high; then gold and silver were abandoned and copper, tin, Bhells, skins, stones and paper were given a fixed value, and used until by abuse all the advantages to be derived from the use of money were lost, and there was nothing left for tbe people to do but to go back to barter, and this they did more than once. They cannot be said to have a coinage; 2900 years ago they made round coins with a square hole in the middle, and they have made no advance beyond that since. The well known cash is a cast brass coin of that description, and, although it is valued at about one mill and half of our money, and has to be Btrung in lots of 10UU to be computed with any ease, it is the sole measure of value and legal tender of the country. So iah, Mexican and our new trade dollars are employed in China; they pass because they are necessary for larger operations, and beoauae faith in their standard value has beoome established, but they are cur rent simply as stamped ingots, with their weigui anu oneness lnaioateq.

Tuesday and Wednesday, APRIL 16 and 17. NOVELTIES COME AND SEE THEM! WILLIAM G. DUNN & CO 25, 27 THE CITY. DIED ALONE. A Prominent Lawier ot" Brown County fonnd Dead In Hie Room at Ibe Nell House. Colonel John G. Marshall, of George town, Brown county, was found dead in hia room at the Neil House ubout six o'clock yesterday morning. He came to the city sometime Thursday night or Fri-da rnorning early to be in attendance on urday he finished the argument ofa case, and went to his room about 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Nothing more was Been of him until about six o'clock yesterday morning one of the bell boys, in passing bis room on tbe third Boor, noticed that the door waa standing ajar several inchea. He entered and found Mr. Marshall lying on the bed as if be had juat laid down for a short rest. He was lying on his back, his legs astride, a pair of eye glasses iu his right hand, and a copy of the Cincinnati Enquirer in the left, or rather having fallen down at his left side. The eyes and mouth of the deceased were closed and his features regular, giving every indication that he had died without a struggle. The exact time of his death is not known, though the probabilities are that he died sometime during the evening Saturday, The deceased has been troubled for some time with heart disease and special complaints were heard from him Saturday, because of indisposition from thia ssurce. On climbing the stairs to the Su preme Court room he was obliged to stop and rest, from exhaustion, brought about by heart dieease. Mr. Marshall was one of the most prominent lawyers of his section of the country and had a great many friends in the profession generally, and among the Judges on the bench. Judge Tarbell, wno nas Deen silting in tne -District uourt in this city for some days past, and Captain Higgins, of the Adjutant General's office, are fellow townsmen of Mr. Marshall, and made the necessary arrangements yesterday for the remains to be taken to Georgetown. Dr. Loving was called yesterday morning and made a brief examination of the body, although no post mortem was held. Sufficient was learned to justify the belief that death resulted from heart disease, the immediate cause being thoroughly taxed and exhausted energies. Mr. Marshall had been married the second time, and leaves a wife and a large family or children. Since the foregoing was written, further particulars have been learned in connection with the arrival of Mr. Marshall in the city, which it may be well to mention here. Hia regular place of stopping when he came to the city has been the American House, He. in company with Edward Boney, Auditor of Brown county, and Mr. McKnight, of Georgetown, came in upon the 12:50 train Thursday night. When he arrived at the American, Mr. Marshall informed Mr. Will Tucker, the clerk, that it would be necessary to place him in a room with some other person, as be would probably require some attention during the night. Accordingly all three oi tne gentlemen were given room 94, but afterward Mr. Boney came out and was assigned to room 97, By request two boys were put in Mr. Marshall's room to stay the balance of the night, and on Friday he had the assistance of the porter during the day for dressing, undressing, bathing, etc. Friday evening, in a number of orders which were taken for supper, Mr. Marshall failed to receive his as soon as he might have under other circumstances, and seemed to take offense over the matter. At any rate, he did not wait for his supper, but went to the Neil House, where he was heard from the next day. Tha balance of tbe account in regard to his arguing a case in the Supreme Court, Saturday, is correct, though it is not certain as to the exact time when he came to the Neil House and passed up to his room. Colonel Marshall waa the Democratic candidate for Lientenant Governor in 1861, when Hugh J. Jewett ran, and was also member from Brown county of the Fiftyninth General Assembly, which sat in 1870. Tbe remains were taken to his late home, In Georgetown, last night. OPENING! O 3B -a. 2NT X3 IN ALL DEPARTMENTS! and 29 NORTH HIGH ST. i Palm Sunday. Yesterday was Palm Sunday, so called as to commemorate the entry of Chritt into Jerusalem, five days before the cruc'-flxion. Tbe day waa generally observed by the Catholic and Episcopal Churches, which were appropriately decorated with cedars and a few palm branches. It is not known exactly whether palm branches were strewn before Christ as he entered Jerusalem, as the New Testament saya "that multitudes went before him and spread their garments in the way : others out down branches from trees and spread them in the way." It is thought that aajjn hranches were used, because euch species called the Phanix liwiyiijfw, growing in this country, has been ordained by the Boman Church to be need in the religious ceremonies on Palm Sunday. In some places tbe date tree is also grown for the branches alone to be used for such decorations, y" Tbe Telepbone. Yesterday afternoon a practical test of the workings of the telephone between thia place and Cleveland was given from the Western Union Telegraph. This end of the line was superintended by Charles Boss, chief operator, and the Cleveland end by George Wadsworth, assistant chief operator. The weather was not favorable, yet the test was very satisfactory, conversation being carried on with comparative ease. Singing from the other end of the line could be heard very distinctly, while singing at this point was as easily heard in Cleveland. Cleveland sent down "Larboard Watch," and was answered with "Mother, Kissed Me in My Dreams;" then came "Almost Persuaded," which was answered by "Hold the Fort" and the "Sweet By and By." The distance over which the Bound traveled is about 140 miles. Taken altogether, the teat was a complete success. Amusements. Opera Home Hia Louise Pomeroy appeared Saturday afternoon as Oamllle. The report that this was ber first appearance in that character was strengthened by several circumstances among them a resort to the good offices of the prompter. She dressed and looked the character admirably, was satisfacto-y in parts of her roading; at times, however, she seemed to be rehearsing for Lady Macbeth, which she played in the evoning. Her Lady Macbeth was perhaps the least acceptable of any of her chsracterlzations in this city. She seems to adopt the heaviest conception of the part, but haB not the voice of a Charlotte Oushman or a Mrs. Waller to carry it out. Miss Pomeroy will probably not make a highly successful Lady Macbeth unless she revolutionizes the character and obtains the public consent to a departure from the old and recogoized school. Bryant's Minstrels will be at the Opera Bouse Thursday evening. Heal Estate Transfer. Deeds have been filed in the Recorder's office since our last report as follows: W. E.
